The following scam impersonates an outlook message that someone has logged onto the victim’s account and the account will be suspended unless the user signs in to verify it was them.

This is a well crafted phish that creates a false sense of urgency that the victim’s account is compromised and the only way to resolve this issue is to open the link and enter your credentials to confirm ownership of your account. Some giveaway’s that this is a scam is that the email account that this scam was sent from is not from the official Outlook email. The link is also a shorted URL to help mask the true URL, anytime you see a shortened link from someone you don’t trust do not open it!

The following is a repeat of a job offer scam. It seems that emailing fake job offers is a very common method of collecting personally identifiable information. The scammers have decided to keep the Dr. John Largen name for now but it can change.

The scam is offering a job opportunity for students to work for a doctor who is out of country, buying supplies for him and mail letters for him. The offer is for $620 a week! This is a scam. No one will offer a job without an interview. The deal is too good to be true. The scammer asks for your personal information which will be used to steal your identity. The scammer will also ask for you to purchase items for them and not pay reimburse or pay you the promised amount. To spot a scam like this, think about the offer. Is it too good to be true? If so it’s likely the offer is a scam. Notice that the email is not even from a business email or from the Department of Disability Resources and Educational Services which the scammer claims to be an employee of.

The body of the email is empty but has an attachment of a text document with the offer written inside ( I have posted below). If you have received this email please delete it.
